Ifntrobuction. 



The author or compiler of this book, setting - forth in intensely har- 
monious vision "Jesus, the Word of God," as presented in the four Gospel- 
histories, is the ingenious, versatile, and studious Professor of Commercial 
Law, Commercial Arithmetic, Phonography, Tj^pewriting and Book-keep- 
ing in the High School of St. Joseph, Missouri. He is also the much ap- 
preciated teacher of a large class of youth in the Sunday-school of the 
First Methodist Episcopal Church, and is the third vice-president of the 
Ratcliff Epworth League, enthusiastically directing- the young people in 
their " literal department." 

It was while engaged in the preparation of the lessons for his Sunday- 
school class, that, as by a deeply felt sense of personal need, and 
prompted b}^ original impulse to such lines of investigation, he began com- 
paring each of the four Gospel narratives with those of the other three. 
Not informedl}' aware was he that the scholarly Westcott in his " Intro- 
duction to the Study of the Gospels " had said, " Sectaries divided the 
Gospels as being separate^ complete ; the Church united them, as con- 
stituents of a harmonious whole." Not conscious^ possessed of the 
knowledge was he that Irenyeus, Bishop of Lyons in the end of the second 
century, and who in his j^outh was personal^ acquainted with Poljxarp, 
the disciple of John, had written, " The Creator-Word, who sits upon the 
Cherubim, when manifested to men, gave us the Gospel in a four-fold form; 
while it is held together b3* one Spirit : " and then had gone on to prove 
b}' various analogies, that the Gospels could not have been more nor fewer 
than four, the number of the faces of the Cherubim, which were " images of 
the life and work of the Son of God." Not historically informed perchance 



was he that Clement of Alexandria, one of the most prolific and scholarly 
writers of the infant Church, and who wrote in the reign of the Emperor 
Severus, A. D. 193-211, relates it as a current tradition of his time, that "St. 
John, when he found in the Writings of the other Evangelists, the bodily 
history of the Lord, composed a Spiritual Gospel." 

But, prompted to such study, and led on in such research as might 
enable him to command the priceless fruitage of the latest and ripest 
Christian-scholarship for the setting forth of the words and works of 
Jesus, he has here in this volume, with tireless painstaking and marvel- 
ous skill, gathered and presented such a Harmony of the Gospels, and in 
such chronological order, as combine for our advantage all the excel- 
lencies of Andrews, Broadus, Canon Farrar, Gardiner, Robinson and 
Tischendorf. 

I do not know who said it ; but it is beautifully said, and as blessedly 
true : "We, study therefore the Law in the Gospels ; the Gospels in the 
Epistles ; and all in Christ" 




Pastor, First Methodist Episcopal Church, 

St. Joseph, Missouri.

2 Forasmuch as mauy 
have taken in hand to 
draw up a narrative con- 
cerning those matters 
which have been fulfilled 
among us, even as they 
delivered them unto us, 
which from the begin- 
ning were eyewitnesses 
and ministers of the 
word, it seemed good to 
me also, having traced 
the course of all things 
accurately from the first, 
to write unto thee in or- 
der, most excellent The- 
ophilus; that thou might- 
est know the certainty 
concerning the things 
wherein thou wast in- 
structed. 

3 There was in the days 
of Herod, king of Judaea, 
a certain priest named 
Zacharias, of the course 
of Abijah: and he had a 
wife ot the daughters of 
Aaron, and her name was 
Elisabeth. And they 
were both righteous be- 
fore God, walking in all 
the commandments and 
ordinances of the Lord 
blameless. And they had 
no child, because that 
Elisabeth was barren, 
and they both were now 
well stricken in years. 
Now it came to pass, 
while he executed the 
priest's office before God 
in the order of his 
course, according to the 
custom of the priest's

1 In the beginning was 
the Word, and the Word 
was with God, and the 
Word was God. The 
same was in the begin- 
ning with God. All 
things were made by 
him; and without him 
was not anything made 
that hath been made. In 
him was life; and the 
life was the light of men. 
And the light shineth in 
the darkness; and the 
darkness apprehended 
it not.

office, his lot was to en- 
ter into the temple of 
the Lord and burn in- 

10 cense. And the whole 
multitude of the people 
were praying without at 
the hour of incense. 

11 And there appeared unto 
him an angel of the Lord 
standing on the right 
side of the altar of in- 

12 cense. And Zacharias 
was troubled when he 
saw him, and fear fell 

13 upon him. But the an- 
gel said unto him, Fear 
not, Zacharias: because 
thy supplication is heard, 
and thy wife Elisabeth 
shall bear thee a son, 
and thou shalt call his 

14 name John. And thou 
shalt have joy and glad- 
ness 1 ; and many shall re- 

15 joice at his birth. For 
he shall be great in the 
sight of the Lord, and 
he shall drink no wine 
nor strong drink; and 
he shall be filled with 
the Holy Ghost, even 
from his mother's womb. 

16 And many of the children 
of Israel shall he turn 
unto the Lord their God. 

17 And he shall go before 
his face in the spirit and 
power of Elijah, to turn 
the hearts of the fathers 
to the children, and the 
disobedient to walk in 
the wisdom of the just; 
to make ready for the 
Lord a people prepared 

18 for him. And Zacharias 
said unto the angel, 
Whereby shall I know 
this? for I am an old 
man, and my wife well 

19 stricken in years. And 
the angel answering said 
unto him, I am Gabriel, 
that stand in the pres- 
ence of God; and I was 
sent to speak unto thee. 
and to bring thee these 

20 good tidings. And be- 
hold, thou shalt be silent 
and not able to speak, 
until the day that these 
things shall come to pass, 
because thou believedst 
not my words, which 
shall be fulfilled in their

were waitiDg for Zach- 
arias, and they marvelled 
•while he tarried in the 

22 temple. And when he 
came out, he could not 
speak unto them: and 
they perceived that he 
had seen a vision in the 
temple: and he contin- 
ued making signs unto 
them, and remained 

23 4 dumb. And it came to 
pass, when the clays of 
his ministration were 
fulfilled, he departed 
unto his house. 

24 And after these days 
Elisabeth his wife con- 
ceived; and she hid her- 
self five months, saying, 

25 Thus hath the Lord done 
unto me in the days 
wherein he looked upon 
me, to take away my re- 
proach among men. 

26 5 Now in the sixth 
monih the angel Gabriel 
was sent from God unto 
a city of Galilee, named 

27 Nazareth, to a virgin be- 
trothed to a man whose 
name was Joseph, of the 
the house of David; and 
the virgin's name was 

28 Mary. And he came in 
unto her, and said, Hail, 
thou that art highly fa- 
voured, the Lord is with 

29 thee. But she was 
greatly troubled at the 
saying, and cast in her 
mind what manner of 
salutation this might be. 

30 And the angel said unto 
her, Fear not, Mary: for 
thou hast found favour 

31 with God. And behold, 
thou shalt conceive in 
thy womb, and bring 
forth a son, and shalt 

32 call his name Jesus. He 
shall be great, and shall 
be called the Son of the 
Most High : and the Lord 
God shall give unto him 
the throne of his Father 

33 David : and he shall 
reign over the house of 
Jacob forever; and of 
his kingdom there shall 

34 be no end. And Mary 
said unto the angel, How

overshadow thee : where- 
fore also that which is 
to be born shall be called

36 And behold, Elisabeth 
thy kinswomaD, she also 
hath conceived a son in 
her old age: and this is 
the sixth month with her 
that was called barren. 

37 For no word from God 
shall be void of power. 

38 And Mary said, Behold, 
the handmaid of the 
Lord ; be it unto me ac- 
cording to thy word. 
And the angel departed 
from her. 

39 6 And Mary arose in 
these days and went into 
the hill country with 
haste, into a city of 

10 Judah; and entered into 
the house of Zacharias 
and saluted Elisabeth . 

41 And it came to pass, 
when Elisabeth heard the 
salutation of Mary, the 
babe leaped in her womb ; 
and Elisabeth was filled 

42 with the Holy Ghost; and 
she lifted up her voice 
with a loud cry, and said, 
Blessed art thou among 
women, and blessed is 
the fruit of thy womb. 

43 And whence is this to 
me, that the mother of 
my Lord should come 

44 unto me? For behold, 
when the voice of thy sal- 
utation came into mine 
ears, the babe leaped in 

45 my womb for joy. And 
blessed is she that be- 
lieved ; for there shall be 
a fulfilment of the things 
which have been spoken 
to her from the Lord. 

46 And Mary said, 

My soul doth magnify the 
Lord, 

47 Andmy spirit hath rejoiced 

in God my Saviour. 

48 For he hath looked upon 

the low estate of his 
handmaiden : 
For hehold, from hence-

done to me great tilings . 
And holy is his name. 

50 And his mercy is unto gen- 

erations and generations 
On them that fear him. 

51 He hath shewed strength 

with his arm ; 
He hath scattered the 

proud in the imagination 

of their heart. 
5-2 He hath put down princes 

from their thrones. 
And hath exalted them of 

low degree. 

53 The hungry he hath filled 

with good things ; 
And the rich he hath sent 
empty away. 

54 He hath holpen Israel his 

servant. 
That he might remember 
mercy

fathers) 
Toward Abraham and his 
seed for ever. 

56 7 And Mary abode with 
her about three months, 
and returned unto her 
house. 

57 8 Now Elisabeth's time 
was fultillecl that she 
should be delivered ; and 
she brought forth a son. 

58 And her neighbors and her 
kinsfolk heard that the 
Lord had magnified his 
mercy towards her; and 
they rejoiced with her. 

59 And it came to pass on 
the eighth day, that they 
came to circumcise the 
child ; and they would 
have called him Zacha- 
rias, after the name of his 

60 father. And his mother 
answered and said, Not 
so; but he shall be called 

61 John. And they said 
unto her, There is none 
of thy kindred that is 

62 called by this name. And 
they made signs to his 
father, what he would 

63 have him called. And he 
asked for a writing tab- 
let, and wrote, saying, 
His name is John. And 

64 they marvelled all. And 
his mouth was opened 
immediately, and his 
tongue loosed, and he 

65 spake, blessing God. And 
fear came on all that 
dwelt round about them : 
and all these sayings 
were noised abroad 
throughout all the hill

minded to put her away

thought on these things, 
behold, an angel of the 
Lord appeared unto him 
in a dream, saying, Jo- 
seph, thou son of David, 
fear not to take unto thee 
Mary thy wife : for that 
which is conceived in 
her is of the Holy Ghost. 

21 And she shall bring forth 
a son ; and thou shalt 
call his name Jesus; for 
it is he that shall save 
his people from their 

22 sins. Now all this is 
come to pass, that it 
might be fulfilled which 
was spoken by the Lord 
through the prophet, 
saying, 

23 Behold, the virgin shall he 

with child, and shall 
bring forth a son. 
And they shall call his 
name Emmanuel ; 
which is, being interpre- 

24 ted, God with us. And 
Joseph arose from lis 
sleep, and did as the an-

manded him, and took 
unto him his wife;

she had brought forth a

brought forth her first-

a manger, because there 
was no room for them 
in the inD.

field, and keeping watch 
by night over their flock. 

9 And an angel of the Lord 
stood by them, and the 
glory of the Lord shone 
round about them : and 
they were sore afraid. 

10 And the angel said unto 
them, Be not afraid; for 
behold, I bring you good 
tidings of great joy 
which shall be to all the 

11 people: for there is born 
to you this day in the 
city of David a Saviour, 
which is Christ the

find a babe wrapped in 
swaddling clothes, and

the angel a multitude of 
the heavenly host prais- 
ing God, and saving,

And on earth peace among 
men in whom he is well 
pleased. 

15 And it came to pass, when 
the angels went away 
from them into heaven, 
the shepherds said one to 
another, Let us now go 
even unto Bethlehem, and 
see this thing that is come 
to pass, which the Lord 
hath made known to us.

thou art the Son of God, 
cast thyself down : for it 
is written, 

He shall give his angels 
charge concerning thee: 

And on their hands they 
shall hear thee up, 

Lest haply thou dash thy

shalt not tempt the Lord 

8 thy God. Again, the devil 
taketh him unto an ex- 
ceeding high mountain, 
and sheweth him all the 
kingdoms of the world, 
and the glory of them ; 

9 and he said unto him, All 
these things will I give 
thee, if thou wilt fall 
down and worship me. 

10 Then saith Jesus unto 
him, Get thee hence, 
Satan: for it is written, 
Thou shalt worship the 
Lord thy God, and him 
only shalt thou serve.

20 And he confessed, and 
denied not; and he con- 
fessed, I am not the 

21 Christ. And they asked 
him, What then? Art 
thou Elijah? And he 
saith, I am not. Art thou 
the prophet? And he 

22 answered, No. They said 
therefore unto him, Who 
art thou? that we may 
give an answer to them 
that sent us. What say- 

23 est thou of thyself? He 
said, I am the voice of 
one crying in the wilder-

way of the Lord, as said 

24 Isaiah the prophet. And 
they had been sent from 

25 the Pharisees. And they

thou, if thou art not the

Behold, the Lamb of

9 And they bare it. And

21 in three days? But he 
spake of the temple of 

22 his body. When there-

remembered that he 
spake this; and they 
believed the scripture,

23 40 Now when he was 
in Jerusalem at the pass-

many believed on his 
name, beholding his

Jesus did not trust him-

unto him, Art thou the

understandest not these 

11 things? Verily, verily, 
I say unto thee, We 
speak that we do know,

being wearied with his 
journey, sat thus by the 
well. It was about the 

7 sixth hour. There com- 
eth a woman of Samaria 
to draw water: Jesus 
saith unto her, Give me 

8 to drink. For his dis- 
ciples were gone away 
into the city to buy food. 

9 The Samaritan woman 
therefore saith unto him. 
How is it that thou, be- 
ing a Jew, askest drink 
of me, which am a Sa- 
maritan woman? (For 
Jews have no dealings 

10 with Samaritans.) Jesus 
answered and said unto 
her, If thou knewest the 
gift of God, and who it 
is that saith to thee, Give 
me to drink; thou would- 
est have asked of him, 
and he would have given 

11 thee living water. The 
woman saith unto him. 
Sir, thou hast nothiDgto 
draw with, and the well 
is deep: from whence 
then hast thou that living 

12 water? Art thou greater 
than our father Jacob, 
which gave us the well, 
and drank thereof him- 
self, and his sons, and his 

13 cattle? Jesus answered 
and said unto her, Every 
one that drinketh of this 
water shall thirst again; 

14 but whosoever drinketh 
of the water that I shall 
give him shall never 
thirst; but the water 
that I shall give him shall 
become in him a well of 
water springing up into 

15 eternal life. The woman

her, Go, call thy hus- 
band, and come hither. 

17 The woman answered 
and said unto him, I have 
no husband. Jesus saith 
unto her, thou saidst well, 

18 I have no husband: for 
thou hast had five hus- 
bands ; and he whom 
thou now hast is not 
thy husband : this hast 

19 thou said truly. The 
woman saith unto him, 
Sir, I perceive thou art a 

20 prophet. Our fathers 
worshipped in this moun- 
tain; and ye say, that in 
Jerusalem is the place 
where men ought to wor- 

21 ghip. Jesus saith unto 
her, Woman, believe me, 
the hour cometh, when 
neither in this mountain, 
nor in Jerusalem, shall 
ye worship the Father. 

22 Ye worship that which 
ye know not: we wor- 
ship that which we know : 
for salvation is from 

23 the Jews. But the hour 
cometh, and now is, 
when the true worship- 
pers shall worship the 
Father in spirit and 
truth: for such doth the 
Father seek to be his 

24 worshippers. God is a 
Spirit : and they that 
worship him must wor- 
ship in spirit and truth. 

25 The woman saith unto 
him, I know that Mes- 
siah cometh (which is 
called Christ): when he 
is come, he will declare 

26 unto us all things. Jesus 
saith unto her, I that 
speak unto thee am he. 

27 54 And upon this 
came his disciples; and 
they marvelled that he 
was speaking with a wo- 
man; yet no man said, 
What seekest thou? or, 
Why speakest thou with 

28 her? So the woman left 
her waterpot, and went 
away into the city, and

46 59 He came therefore

water wine. And there 
was a certain nobleman, 
whose son was sick at 

47 Capernaum. When he 
heard that Jesus was 
come out of Judaea into 
Galilee, he went unto 
him, and besought Mm 
that he would come 
down, and heal his son;

48 of death. Jesus there-

wonders, ye will in no 

49 wise believe. The noble- 
man saith unto him, Sir, 
come down ere my child 

50 die Jesus saith unto 
him, Go thy way; thy

believed the word that 
Jesus spake unto him. 
aud he went his way.

met him, saying, that his 

52 son lived. So he in-

when he began to amend.

him, Yesterday at the 
seventh hour the fever

offer for thy cleansing, 
according as Moses com- 
manded, for a testimony 

15 unto them. But so much 
the more went abroad 
the report concerning 
him: and great multi- 
tudes came together to 
hear, and to be healed of 
their infirmities. 

16 But he 
withdrew himself in the 
deserts, and prayed.

Chapter 2. 

1 77 And when he entered 
again into Capernaum 
after some days, it was 
noised that he was in the 

2 house. And many were 
gathered together, so 
that there was no longer 
room for them, no, not 
even about the door : and 
he spake the word unto 

3 them. Aud they come, 
bringing unto him a man 
sick of the palsy, borne 

4 of four. And when they 
could not come nigh unto 
him for the crowd, they 
uncovered the roof where 
he was: and when they 
had broken it up, they 
let down the bed whereon 
the sick of the palsy lay. 

5 And Jesus seeing their 
faith saith unto the sick 
of the palsy, Son, thy sins 

6 are forgiven. But there 
were certain of the 
scribes sitting there, and 
reasoning in their hearts, 

7 Why doth this man thus 
speak? he blasphemeth : 
who can forgive sins but 

8 one, even God? And 
straightway Jesus, per- 
ceiving in his spirit that 
they so reasoned within 



17 And it came to pass on 
one of those days, that 
he was teaching; and 
there were Pharisees and 
doctors of the law sitting 
by, which were come out 
of every village of Gali- 
lee and Judsei and Jeru- 
salem: and the power of 
the Lord was with him to 

17 heal. And behold, men 
bring on a bed a man that 
was palsied: and they 
sought to bring him in, 
and to lay him before him. 

19 And not finding by what 
way they might bring 
him in because of the 
multitude, they went up 
to the housetop, and let 
him down through the 
tiles with his couch into 
the midst before Jesus. 

20 And seeing their faith, 
he said, Man, thy sins 

21 are forgiven thee. And 
the scribes aud the Phar- 
isees began to reason, 
saying, who is this that 
speaketh blasphemies? 
Who can forgive sins, 

22 but G3d alone? But 
Jesus perceiving their 
reasonings, answered and 
said unto them, What

his house. But when the 
multitudes saw it, they 
were afraid, and glorified 
God, which had given 
such power unto men.

-They that are whole have no need

9 80 And as Jesus passed 
by from thence, he saw a 
man, called Matthew, sit- 
ting at the place of toll: 
and he saith unto him, 
Follow me. And he arose, 
and followed him. 

10 81 And it came to pass, 
as he sat at meat in the 
house, behold, many pub- 
licans and sinners came 
and sat down with Jesus 

11 and his disciples. And 
when the Pharisees saw 
it, they said unto his dis- 
ciples, Why eateth your 
Master with publicans

he heard it, he said, They

go ye and learn what this 
meaneth, I desire mercy

themselves, saith unto 
them, Why reason ye 
these things in your 

9 hearts? Whether is 
easier, to say to the sick 
of the palsy, Thy sins are 
forgiven; or to say, Arise, 
and take up thy bed, and 

10 walk? But that ye may 
know that the Son of man 
hath power on earth to 
forgive sins (he saith to 
the sick of the palsy), 

11 I say unto thee, Arise, 
take up thy bed, and go 

12 unto thy house. And he 
arose, and straightway 
took up the bed, and 
went forth before them 
all; insomuch that they 
were all amazed, and 
glorified God, saying. 
We never saw it on this 
fashion. 

13 79 And he went forth 
again by the sea side; 

. and all the multitude re- 
sorted unto him, and he 

14 taught them. And as he 
passed by, he saw Levi 
the son of Alphaeus sit- 
ting at the place of toll, 
and he saith unto him, 
Follow me. And he 
arose and followed him. 

15 And it came to pass, that 
he was sitting at meat in 
his house, and many 
publicans and sinners sat 
down with Jesus and his 
disciples : for there were 
many, and they followed 

16 him. And the scribes of 
the Pharisees, when they 
saw that he was eating 
with the sinners and 
publicans, said unto his 
disciples, He eateth and 
drinketh with publicans 

17 and sinners. And when 
Jesus heard it, he saith 
unto them, They that are 
whole have no need of a 
physician : but they that 
are sick : I came not to 
call the righteous, but 
sinners. 

18 And John's disciples and 
the Pharisees were fast- 
ing: and they come and 
say unto him, Why do 
John's disciples and the 
disciples of the Pharisees 
fast, but thy disciples 



reason ye in your hearts? 

23 Whether is easier, to say, 
Thy sins are forgiven 
thee; or to sav, Arise 

24 and walk? But' that ye 
may know that the Son of 
man hath power on earth 
to forgive sins(he said un- 
to him that was palsied), I 
say unto thee, Arise, and 
take up thy couch, and go 

25 unto thy house. And 
immediately he rose up 
before them, and took up 
that whereon he lay, and 
departed to his house, 

26 glorifying God. And 
amazement took hold on 
all, and they glorified 
God; and they were filled 
with fear, saying. We 
have seen strange things 
to-day. 



27 And after these things he 
went forth, and beheld a 
publican, named Levi, 
sitting at the place of 
toll, and said unto him, 

28 Follow me. And he for- 
sook all, and rose up and 

29 followed him. And Levi 
made him a great feast 
in his house : and there 
was a great multitude of 
publicans and of others 
that were sitting at meat 

30 with them. And the 
Pharisees and their 
scribes murmured 
against his disciples, say- 
ing, Why do ye eat and 
drink with the publicans 

31 and sinners? And Jesus 
answering said unto 
them, They that are 
whole have no need of a 
physician ; but they that 

32 are sick. I am not come 
to call the righteous but 
sinners to repentance, 



33 And they said unto him, 
The disciples of John 
fast often, and make sup- 
plications; likewise also 
the disciples of the Phar- 
isees: but thine eat and

36 And he 
spake also a parable unto 
them; No man rendeth a 
piece from a new gar- 
ment and putteth it upon 
an old garment ; else he 
will rend the new, and 
also the piece from the 
new will not agree with 

37 the old. And no man 
putteth new wine into 
old wine-skins ; else the 
new wine will burst the 
skins, and itself will be 
spilled, and the skins 

38 will perish. But new 
wine must be put into 

39 fresh wine-skins. And 
no man having drunk old 
wine desireth new: for

28 For she said, If I touch 
but his garments, I shall 

29 be made whole. And 
straightway the fountain 
of her blood was dried 
up; and she felt in her 
body that she was healed 

30 of her plague. And 
straightway Jesus, per- 
ceiving in himself that 
the power proceeding 
from him had gone forth, 
turned him about in the 
crowd, and said, Who 
touched my garments? 

31 And his disciples said 
unto him, Thou seest the 
multitude thronging thee, 
and gayest thou, Who 

32 touched me? And he 
looked round about to 
see her that had done 

33 this thing. But the wo- 
man fearing and trem- 
bling, knowing what had 
been done to her, came 
and fell down before 
him, and told him all the 

34 truth. And he said unto 
her, Daughter, thy faith 
hath made thee whole; 
go in peace, and be 
whole of thy plague. 

35 While he yet spake, they 
come from the ruler of 
the synagogue's house, 
saying, Thy daughter is 
dead: why troublest thou 
the Master any further ? 

36 But Jesus, not heeding 
the word spoken, saith 
unto the ruler of the 
synagogue, Fear not, only 

37 believe. And he suffered 
no man to follow with 
him, save Peter, and 
James, and John the 

88 brother of James. And 
they come to the house 
of the ruler of the syna- 
gogue ; and he beholdeth 
a tumult, and many 
weeping and wailing 

39 greatly. And when he 
was entered in, he saith 
unto them, Why make ye 
a tumult, and weep ? the 
child is not dead, but 

40 sleepeth. And they 
laughed him to scorn. 
But he, having put them 
all forth, taketh the fa- 
ther of the child and her 



said, Who is it that 
touched me? And when 
all denied, Peter said, 
and they that were with 
him, Master, the multi- 
tudes press thee and 

46 crush thee. But Jesus 
said, Some one did touch 
me : for I perceived that 
power had gone forth 

47 from me. And when the 
woman saw that she was 
not hid, she came tremb- 
ling, and falling down 
before him declared in 
the presence of all the 
people for what cause she 
touched him, and how 
she was healed immedi- 

48 ately. And he said unto 
her, Daughter, thy faith 
hath made thee whole ; go 
in peace. 



49 While he yet spake, there 
cometh one from the 
ruler of the synagogue's 
house, saying, thy daugh- 
ter is dead; trouble not 

50 the Master. But Jesus 
hearing it, answered him, 
Fear not: only believe, 
and she shall be made 

51 whole. And when he 
came to the house, he 
suffered not any man to 
enter in with him, save 
Peter, and John, and 
James, and the father of 
the maiden and her 

52 mother. And all were 
weeping, and bewailing 
her: but he said, Weep 
not; for she is not dead, 

53 but sleepeth. And they 
laughed him to scorn, 
knowing that she was 

54 dead. But he, taking her 
by the hand, called, say- 

55 ing, Maiden, arise. And 
her spirit returned, and 
she rose up immediately :

1 91 After these things 
there was a feast of the 
Jews; and Jesus went up 
to Jerusalem. 

2 Now there is in Jerusa- 
lem by the sheep gate a 
pool, which is called in 
Hebrew Bethesda, hav- 

3 ing five porches. In 
these lay a multitude of 
them that were sick, 
blind, halt, withered. 

5 And a certain man was 
there, which had been 
thirty and eight years in 

6 his infirmity. When Jesus 
saw him lying, and knew 
that he had been now a 
long time in that case, he 
saith unto him, Wouldest

sick man answered him. 
Sir, I have no man,

saith unto him, Arise,

veyed himself away, a 
multitude being in the 

14 place. Afterward Jesus 
lindeth him in the tem- 
ple, and said unto him, 
Behold, thou art made 
whole: sin no more, lest 
a worse thing befall 

15 thee. The man went 
away, and told the Jews 
that it was Jesus which 
had made him whole. 

16 And for this cause did 
the Jews persecute Jesus, 
because he did these 
things on the sabbath. 

17 93 But Jesus answered 
them, My Father work- 
eth even until now, and 

18 I work. For this cause 
therefore the Jews sought 
the more to kill him, be- 
cause he not only brake 
the sabbath, but also 
called God his own Fath- 
er, making himself equal 
with God. 

19 Jesus therefore answered 
and said unto them, 
Verily, verily, I say unto 
you, the Son can do noth- 
ing of himself, but what 
he seeth the Father do- 
ing: for what things so- 
ever he doeth, these the 
Son also doeth in like 

20 manner. For the Father 
loveth the Son, and 
sheweth him all things 
that himself doeth: 
and greater works 
than these will be shew 
him, that ye may marvel. 

21 For as the Father raiseth 
the dead and quickeneth 
them, even so the Son 
also quickeneth whom he 

22 will For neither doth 
the Father judge any 
man, but he hath given 
all judgement unto the 

23 Son; that all may hon- 
our the Son, even as they 
honour the Father. He 
that honoureth not the 
Son honoureth not the 
Father which sent him. 

24 Verily, verily, I say unto 
you, He that heareth my 
word, and believeth him 
that sent me, hath eter-

25 life. Verily, verily, I 
say unto you, The hour 
cometh, and now is, 
when the dead shall hear 
the voice of the Son of 
God ; and they that hear 

26 shall live. For as the 
Father hath life in him- 
self, even so gave he to 
the Son also to have life 

27 in himself: and he gave 
him authority to execute 
judgement, because he is 

28 the Son of man. Marvel 
not at this : for the hour 
cometh, in which all that 
are in the tombs shall 

29 hear his voice, and shall 
come forth; they that 
have clone good, unto the 
resurrection of life ; and 
they that have done ill, 
unto the resurrection of 
judgement. 

30 I can of myself do noth- 
ing: as I hear, I judge: 
and my judgement is 
righteous; because I 
seek not mine own will, 
but the will of him that 

31 sent me. If I bear wit- 
ness of myself, my wit- 

32 ness is not true. 94 It 
is another that beareth 
witness of me; and I 
know that the witness 
which he witnesseth of 

33 me is true. Ye have sent 
unto John, and he hath 
borne witness unto the

shineth: and ye were 
willing to rejoice for a

36 95 But the witness 
which I have is greater 
than that of John: for 
the works which the 
Father hath given me to 
accomplish, the very 
works that I do, bear wit- 
ness of me, that the 
Father hath sent me.

sent me, he hath borne 
witness of me. Ye have 
neither heard his voice

cornfields; and his dis-

went, to pluck the ears 

24 of corn. And the Phar-

25 is not lawful? And he 
said unto them, Did ye

did, when he had need,

And they watched him, 
whether he would heal 
him on the sabbath day ; 
that they might accuse 
him. And he saith unto 
the man that had his 
hand withered, Stand 
forth. And he saith un- 
them, Is it lawful on the 
sabbath day to do good, 
or to do harm? to save a 
life, or to kill? But they 
held their peace. And 
when he had looked 
round about on them

at the hardening of their

man, Stretch forth thy

It forth : and his hand

wherewith shall it be

good for nothing, but to 
be cast out and trod- 
den under loot of men.

or the prophets : I came 
not to destrov, but to ful-

you, Till heaven and 
earth pass away, one jot

wise pass away from the 
law, till all things be ac- 

19 complished. Whosoever 
therefore shall break one

least in the kingdom of

it was said, thou shalt

fitable for thee that one 
of thy members should 
perish, and not thy whole 
body be cast into bell. 
And if thy right hand 
causeth thee to stumble,

for thee that one of th> 
members should perish, 
and not thy whole body 

31 go into hell. It was said 
also, Whosoever shall put

give her a writing of di-

Chapter 6. 

man can serve two mas- 
ters: for either he will 
hate the one, and love 
the other ; or else he wfk 
hold to one, and despise 
the other. Ye cannot 
serve God and mammon. 

25 125 Therefore I say un- 
to you, Be not anxious 
for your life, what ye 
shall eat, or what ye 
shall drink; nor yet for 
your body, what ye shall 
put on. Is not the life 
more than the food, and 
the body than the rai- 

26 ment? Behold the birds 
of the heaven, that they 
sow not, neither do they 
reap, nor gather into 
barns; and your heaven- 
ly Father feedeth them. 
Are not ye of much more 

27 value than they? And 
which of you by being 
anxious can add one cu- 

28 bit unto his stature? And 
why are ye anxious con- 
cerning raiment? Con- 
sider the lilies of the 
field, how they grow; 
they toil not, neither do 

29 they spin : yet I say unto 
you, that even Solomon 
in all his glory was not 
arrayed like one of these. 

30 But if God doth so clothe 
the grass of the field, 
which to-day is, and to- 
morrow is cast into the 
oven, shall he not much 
more clothe you, O ye of 

31 little faith? Be not there- 
fore anxious, saying, 
What shall we eat? or, 
What shall we drink? or, 
Wherewithal shall we be 

32 clothed? For after all 
these things do the Gen- 
tiles seek; for your heav- 
enly Father knoweth that 
ye have need of all ihese 

33 "things. But seek ye first 
his kingdom, and his 
righteousness ; and all 
these things shall be 

34 added unto you. Be not 
therefore anxious for the 
morrow: for the morrow 
will be anxious for it- 
self. Sufficient unto the 
clay is the evil thereof.

— as ye would that men should do

MATTHEW. 

Chapter 7. 

shall your Father which 
is in heaven give good 
things to them that ask 

12 him? 129 All things 
therefore whatsoever ye 
would that men should 
do unto you, even' 
so do ye also unto 
them: for this is the 
law and the prophets. 

13 130 Enter ye in by the 
narrow gate : for wide is 
the gate, and broad is the 
way, that leadeth to de- 
struction, and many be 
they that enter in thereby. 

14 For narrow is the gate, 
and straitened the way, 
that leadeth unto life, 
and few be they that find 
it. 

15 131 Beware of false 
prophets, which come to 
you in sheep's clothing, 
but inwardly are raven- 

16 ing wolves. By their 
fruits ye shall know 
them. Do men gather 
grapes of thorns, or figs 

17 of thistles? Even so 
every good tree bringeth 
forth good fruit; but the 
corrupt tree bringeth 

18 forth evil fruit. A crood 
tree cannot bring forth 
evil fruit, neither can a 
corrupt tree bring forth 

19 good fruit. Every tree 
that bringeth not forth 
good fruit is hewn down, 

20 and cast into the fire. 
Therefore by their fruits 
ye shall know them. 

21 132 Not every one that 
saith unto me, Lord, 
Lord, shall enter into the 
kingdom of heaven; but 
he that doeth the will of 
my Father which is in 

22 heaven. Many will say 
to me in that day, Lord, 
Lord, did we not prophe- 
sy by thy name, and by 
thy name cast out devils, 
and by thy name do many 

23 mighty works? And then 
will I profess unto them, 
I never knew you: de- 
part from me, ye that work 

24 iniquity. 133 Every one 
therefore which heareth 
these words of mine, and 
cloeth them, shall be lik- 
ened unto a wise man,

31 And 

as ye would that men 
should do to you, do ye 
also to them likewise. 



43 For there is no good tree 
that bringeth forth cor- 
rupt fruit; nor again a 
corrupt tree that bring- 

44 eth forth good fruit. For 
each tree is known by its 
own fruit. For of thorns 
men do not gather figs, 
nor of a bramble bush 

45 gather they grapes. The 
good man out of the 
good treasure of his 
heart bringeth forth that 
which is good; and the 
evil man out of the 
evil treasure bringeth 
forth that which is evil : 
for out of the abundance 
of the heart his mouth 
speaketh.

there was carried out 
one that was dead, the 
only son of his mother,

and much people of the

when the Lord saw her,

the Pharisees heard it, 
they said, This man doth 
uot cast out devils, but 
by Beelzebub the prince 

25 of the devils. 147 And 
knowing their thoughts 
he said unto them, Every 
kiEgdom divided against 
itself is brought to deso- 
lation ; and every city or 
house divided against it- 

26 sejf shall not stand: and 
if Satan casteth out Sa- 
tan, he is divided against 
himself; how then shall 

27 his kingdom stand? And 
if I by Beelzebub cast out 
devile, by whom do your 
sons east them o ut ? 
therefore shall they be 

28 your judges. But if I by 
the Spirit of God cast out 
devils, then is the king- 
dom of God come upon 

29 you. Or how can one 
enter into the hcuse of

his goods, except he first 
bind the strong man?

upon the rocky places,

others fell upon the

Lest haply they should per-

And the servants say 
unto him, Wilt thou then 
that we go and gather 

29 them up? But he saith, 
Nay; lest haply while ye

root up the wheat with

vest: and in the time of 
the harvest I will say to 
the reapers, Gather up 
first the tares, and bind 
them in bundles to burn 
them: but gather the

ing, The kingdom of

grain of mustard seed, 
which a man took, anQ 

32 sowed in his field : which 
indeed is less than all 
seeds; but when it is 
grown, it is greater than

a tree, so that the birds 
of the heaven come and 
lodge in the branches 
thereof.

waves beat into the boat, 
insomuch that the boat 

38 was now filling. And he 
himself was in the stern, 
asleep on the cushion: 
and they awake him, and 
say unto him, Master, 
carest thou not that we

him out of the tombs a 
man with an unclean

man could any more bind 
him, no, not with a

had been often bound 
with fetters and chains, 
and the chains had been 
rent asunder by him, and 
the fetters broken in 
pieces : and no man had 
strength to tame him. 

5 And always, night and 
day, in the tombs and in 
the mountains, he was 
crying out, and cutting 

6 himself with stones. And 
when he saw Jesus from 

afar, he ran and wor-

out with a loud voice, he 
saith, what have I to do

one of those days, that 
he entered into a boat, 
himself and his disciples;

Let us go over unto the 
other side of the lake: 
and they launched forth. 

23 But as they sailed he fell 
asleep: and there came 
down a storm of wind on 
the lake ; and they were 
filling with water, and 

24 were in jeopardy. And 
they came to him, and 
awoke him, saying, Mas- 
ter, master, we perish. 
And he awoke, and re- 
buked the wind and the 
raging of the water: and 
they ceased, and there 

25 was a calm. And he 
said unto them, Where 
is your faith? And be- 
ing afraid they marvelled, 
saying one to another, 
Who then is this, that 
he commandeth even the 
winds and the water, 
and they obey him? 



26 And they arrived at the 
country of the Gerase- 
nes, which is over against 

27 Galilee. And when he 
was come forth upon the 
land, there met him a cer- 
tain man out of the city, 
who had devils ; and for 
a long time he had worn 
no clothes, and abode 
not in any house, but in 

28 the tombs. And when 
he saw Jesus, he cried 
out, and fell down before 
him, and with a loud 
voice said, What have I 
to do with thee, Jesus, 
thou Son of the Most High 
God? I beseech thee, 

29 torment me not. For he 
commanded the unclean 
spirit to come out from 
the man. For often- 
times it had seized him: 
and he was kept under 
guard, and bound with 
chains and fetters; and 
breaking the bands asun- 
der, he was driven of the 
devil into the deserts.

Legion ; for we are many. 

10 And he besought him

besought him, saying, 
Send us into the swine,

unclean spirits came out, 
and entered into the 
swine: and the herd 
rushed down the steep 
into the sea, in number 
about two thousand; and 
they were choked in the 

14 sea. And they that fed 
them fled, and told it in

entering into the boat,

saith unto him, Go to thy

32 into the abyss. Now 
there was there a herd of 
many swine feeding on

intreated him that he 
would give them leave 
to enter into them. And 

33 he gave them leave. And 
the devils came out from 
the man, and entered in-

herd rushed down the 
steep into the lake, and 

34 were choked. And when 
they that fed them saw 
what had come to pass, 
they fled, and told it in

devils were gone out, sit-

Go not into any way of

of the house of Israel. 

7 And as ye go, preach,

it: but if it be not 
worthy, let your peace 

14 return to you. And who- 
soever shall not receive 
you, nor hear your 
words, as ye go forth 
out of that house or that 
city, shake off the dust

king, and asked, saying, 
I will that thou forth-

for the of sake his oaths,

meat, he would not reject 

27 her. And straightway 
the king sent forth a sol- 
dier of his guard, and 
commanded to bring his 
head : and he went and 
beheaded him in the pris- 

28 oa, and brought his head 
in a charger, and gave it to 
the damsel; and the dam- 
sel gave it to her mother.

heard thereof, they came 
and took up his corpse, 
and laid it in a tomb.

from thence in a boat,

and when the multitudes

16 the prophets. But Herod, 
when he heard thereof, 
said, John, whom I be- 
headed, he is risen. 

30 195 And the Apostles 
gather themselves to- 
gether unto Jesus; and 
they told him all thiDgs, 
whatsoever they had 
done, and whatsoever 
they had taught. 

31 And he saith unto 
them, Come ye your- 
selves apart into a desert 
place, and rest a while. 
For there were many 
coming and going, and 
they had no leisure so 

32 much as to eat. And 
they went away in the 
boat to a desert place 

33 apart. And the people 
saw them going, and 
many knew them, and 
they ran there together 
on foot from all the 
cities, and outwent them. 

34 And he came forth and 
saw a great multitude, 
and he had compassion 
on them, because they 
were as sheep not having 
a shepherd; and he be- 
gan to teach them many 

35 things. And when the 
day was now far spent, 
his disciples came unto 
him, and said, The place 
is desert, and the day is 

36 now far spent: send 
them away, that they 
may go into the country 
and villages round about, 
and buy themselves some- 

37 what to eat. But he an- 
swered and said unto 
them, Give ye them to 
eat. And they say unto 
him, Shall we go and buy 
two hundred pennyworth 
of bread, and give them 

38 to eat? And he saith unto 
them, How many loave6 
have ye? go and see. 
And when they knew, 
they say, Five, and two 

39 fishes. And he com- 
manded them that all 
should sit down by com- 
panies upon the green 

40 grass. And they sat down 



by others that one of the 
old prophets was risen 

9 again. And Herod said, 
John I beheaded : but who 
is this, about whom 1 hear 
such things? And he 
sought to see him. 

10 And the apostles, when 
they were returned, de- 
claied unto him what 
things they had done. 
And he took them, and 
withdrew apart to a city 
called Bethsaida. 

11 But 
the multitudes perceiv- 
ing it followed him: and 
he welcomed them, and 
spake to them of the 
kingdom of God, and 
them that had need of 
healing he healed. 



12 And 
the day began to wear 
away; and the twelve 
came, and said unto him, 
Send the multitude away, 
that they may go into the 
villages and country 
round about, and lodge, 
and get victuals : for we 
are here in a desert place. 

13 But he said unto them, 
Give ye them to eat. And 
they said, We have no 
more than five loaves 
and two fishes; except 
we should go and buy 
food for all this people. 

14 For they were about five 
thousand men. And he 
said unto his disciples, 
Make them sit down in 
companies, about fifty 

15 each. And they did so, 
and made them all sit 

16 down. And he took the 
five loaves and the two

which is the sea of Tibe-

tude followed him, be- 
cause they beheld the 
signs which he did on 

3 them that were sick. And 
Jesus went up into the 
mountain, and there he 
sat with his disciples. 

4 Now the passover, the 
feast of the Jews was at 
hand. 



5 Jesus therefore 
lifting up his eyes, and 
seeing that a great mul- 
titude cometh unto him, 
saith unto Philip, Whence 
are we to buy bread, that 

6 these may eat? And this 
he said to prove him : for 
he himself knew what he 

7 would do. Philip an- 
swered him, Two hun- 
dred pennyworth of 
bread is not sufficient for 
them, that every one may 

8 take a little. One of his 
disciples, Andrew, Simon 
Peter's brother, saith 

9 unto him, There is a lad 
here, which hath five bar- 
ley loaves, and two fishes : 
but what are these among 

10 so many? Jesus said, 
Make the people sitdown. 
Now there was much 
grass in the place. So 
the men sat down, in 
number about five thous-

after he had sent the

gave to the disciples to

fishes divided he among

43 And they took np broken 
pieces, twelve basketfuls,

strained his disciples to

to go before him unto

taken leave of them, he 
departed into the mount-

took the loaves ; and 
having given thanks, he 
distributed to them that 
were set down; likewise 
also of the fishes as much 

12 as they would. And 
when they were filled, he 
saith unto his disciples, 
Gather up the broken 
pieces which remain over, 
that nothing be lost. 

13 So they gathered them 
up, and filled twelve bas- 
kets with broken pieces 
from the five barley 
loaves, which remained 
over unto them that had 

14 eaten. When therefore 
the people saw the sign 
which he did, they said, 
This is of a truth the

perceiving that they were 
about to come and take 
him by force, to make him 
king, withdrew again 
into the mountain him- 
self alone. 

16 And when evening came, 
his disciples went down 

17 unto the sea; and they 
entered into a boat, and 
were going over the sea 
unto Capernaum. And 
it was now dark, and 
Jesus had not yet come to

rising b y reason of a 
great wind that blew.

and they were afraid.

whither they were going.

Verily, verily, I say unto

27 Work not for the meat 
which p.erisheth, but for

unto eternal life, which 
the Son of man shall give

Father, even God, hath

not Moses that gave you

but my Father giveth 
you the true bread out 

33 of heaven. For the 
bread of God is that 
which cometh down out 
of heaven, and giveth life

said therefore unto him,

eth to me I will in no

come down from heaveu, 
not to do mine own will, 
but the will of him that 

39 sent me. And this is the 
will of him that sent me, 
that of all that which he 
hath given me I should 
lose nothing, but should 
raise it up at the last day. 

40 For this is the will of 
my Father, that every 
one that beholdeth the 
Son, and believeth on 
him, should have eternal 
life; and I will raise him 
up at the last day. 

41 The Jews therefore mur- 
mured concerning him, 
because he said, I am the 
bread which came down 

42 out of heaven. And they 
said, Is not this Jesus, 
the son of Joseph, whose 
father and mother we 
know? how doth he now 
say, I am come down out 

43 of heaven? Jesus an- 
swered and said unto 
them, Murmur not among 

44 yourselves. No man can 
come to me, except the 
Father which sent me 
draw him: and I will 
raise him up in the last 

45 day. It is written in the 
prophets, And they shall 
all be taught of God. 

Every one that hath heard 
from the Father, and hath 
learned, cometh unto me.

which is from God, he 
hath seen the Father.

may eat thereof, and not

52 The Jews therefore 
strove one with another, 
saying, How can this 
man give us his flesh to

said unto them, Verily, 
verily, I say unto you',

.his blood, ye have not 

54 life in yourselves. He 
that eateth my flesh an d 
drinketh my blood hath 
eternal life; and I will 
raise him up at the last 

55 day. For my fl eg h ig 
meat indeed, and my 
blood is drink indeed.

and drinketh my blood 
abideth in me, aDd I in 

57 him. As the living Father 
sent me, and I i\ Ye be- 
cause of the Father; so 
he that eateth me, he 
also shall live because of 

58 me. This is the bread 
which came down out of

Well did Isaiah prophesy

This people honoureth me

But their heart is far from

8 Ye leave the command- 
ment of God, and hold

j) And he said unto them, 
Full well do ye rejectthe 
commandment of God, 
that ye may keep your 

10 tradition. For Moses 
said, Honour thy father 
and thy mother; and, He 
that speaketh evil of 
father or mother, let him 

11 die the death: bat ye say, 
If a man shall say to his 
father or his mother, 
That wherewith thou 
mightest have D3en pro- 
fited by me is Corban, 
that .is to say, Given to 

12 God; ye no longer suffer 
him to do aught for his 

13 father or hismother; mak- 
ing void the word of God 
by your tradition, which 
ye have delivered: and 
many such like things ye 

14 do. And he called to 
him the multitude again, 
and said unto them, Hear 
me all you, and under - 

15 stand: there is nothing 
from without the man, 
that going into him can 
defile him: but the things 
which proceed out of the 
man are those that defile

that whatsoever goeth 
into the mouth pasgeth 
into the belly, and is cast 
out into the draught? 

18 But the things which pro- 
ceed out of the mouth 
come forth out of the 
heart; and they defile the 

19 man. For out of the 
heart come forth evil 
thoughts, murders, adul- 
t e r i e s, fornications, 
thefts, false witness, rail- 

20 ings: these are the things 
which defile the man : but 
to eat with unwashed 
hands defileth not the 
the man. 

21 206 And Jesus went 
out thence, and withdrew 
into the parts of Tyre 

22 and Sirton. And behold, 
a Canaanitish woman 
came out from those bor- 
ders, and cried, saying, 
Have mercy on me, O 
Lord, thou son of David ; 
my daughter is grievous- 
ly vexed with a devil. 

23 But he answered her not 
a word. And his dis- 
ciples came and besought 
him, saying, Send her 
away; for she crieth after 

24 us. But he answered 
and said, I was not sent 
but unto the lost sheep 
of the house of Israel. 

25 But she came and wor- 
shipped him, saying, 

26 Lord, help me. And he 
answered and said, It is 
not meet to take the chil- 
dren'sbread and cast it to 

27 the dogs. But she said, 
Yea, Lord, for even the 
dogs eat of the crumbs 
which fall from their 

28 master's table. Then 
Jesus answered said unto 
her, woman, great is 
thy faith : be it done un- 
to thee even as thou wilt. 
And her daughter was 
healed from that hour. 

29 207 And Jesus depart- 
ed thence, and came nigh 
unto the sea of Galilee; 
and he went up into the 
mountain, and sat there. 

30 And there came unto him 
great multitudes, having 
with them the lame,

the man, that defileth the 

21 man. For from within, 
out of the heart of men, 
evil thoughts proceed, 

22 fornications, thefts, mur- 
ders, adulteries, covet- 
ings, wickednesses, de- 
ceit, lasciviousness, an 
evil eye, railing, pride, 

23 foolishness: all these 
things proceed from 
within, and defile the 
man. 



24 And from thence he arose, 
and went away into the 
borders of Tyre and Si- 
don. And he entered 
into a house, and would 
have no man know it; 
and he could not be hid. 

25 But straightway a wo- 
man, whose little daugh- 
ter had an unclean spirit, 
having heard of him, 
came and fell down at his 

26 feet. Now the woman 
was a Greek, a Syrophce- 
nician by race. And she 
besought him that he 
would cast forth the 
devil out of her daughter. 

27 And he said unto her, 
Let the children first be 
filled: for it is not meet 
to take the children's 
bread and cast it to the 

28 dogs. But ?he answered 
and saith unto him, Yea, 
Lord: even the dogs un- 
der the table eat of the 

29 children's crumbs. And 
he said unto her, For 
this saying go thy way; 
the devil is gone out of 

30 thy daughter. And she 
went away unto her 
house, and found the 
child laid upon the bed, 
and the devil gone out. 

31 And again he went out 
from the borders of Tyre, 
and came through Sidon 
unto the sea of Galilee, 
through the midst of the 
borders of Decapolis.

charged them that they 
should tell no man: but 
the more he charged 
them, so much the more 
a great deal they pub-

themselves: and he was 
transfigured before them: 

3 and his garments became 
glistering, exceeding 
white; so as no fuller on 
earth can whiten them. 

4 And there appeared unto 
them Elijah with Moses: 
and they were talking 

5 with Jesus. And Peter 
answereth and saith to 
Jesus, Rabbi, it is good 
for us to be here: and let us 
make three tabernacles; 
one for thee, and one for 
Moses, and one for Eli-

what to answer ; for they 

7 became sore afraid. And 
there came a cloud over- 
shadowing them: and 
there came a voice out 
of the cloud, This is my 
beloved Son : hear ye him. 

8 And suddenly looking 
round about, they saw no 
one any more, save Jesus 
only with themselves.

down from the mountain, 
he charged them that 
they should tell no man 
what things they had 
seen, save when the Son 
of man should have risen 

10 again from the dead. And 
they kept the saying, 
questioning among them- 
selves what the rising 
again from the dead 
should mean. 



28 And it came to pass 
about eight days after 
these sayings, he took 
with him Peter and John 
and James, and went up 
into the mountain to 

29 pray. And as he was 
praying, the fashion of 
his countenance was al-

became white and daz-

talked with him two 
men, which were Moses 

31 and Elijah ; who ap- 
peared in glory, and 
spake of his decease 
which he was about to 
accomplish at Jerusalem. 

32 Now Peter and they that 
were with him were heavy 
with sleep : but when 
they were fully awake, 
they saw his glory, and 
the two men that stood 

33 with him. And it came 
to pass, as they were 
parting from him, Peter 
said unto Jesus, Master, 
it is good for us to be 
here : and let us make 
three tabernacles; one 
for thee, and one for 
Moses, and one for Eli- 
jah: not knowing what 

34 he said. And while he 
said these things, there 
came a cloud, and over- 
shadowed them : and 
they feared as they en- 
tered into the cloud. 

35 And a voice came out of 
the cloud, saying, This 
is my Son, my chosen: 

36 hear ye him. And when 
the voiee came, Jesus was 
found alone. And they 
held their peace, and told 
no man in those days any 
of the things which they 
had seen.

mercy on my son : for he 
is epileptic, and suffereth

rebuked him; and the 
devil went out from him : 
and the boy was cured 

19 from that hour. Then 
came the disciples to 
Jesus apart, and said,

your little faith: for

said unto them, Elijah 
indeed cometh first, and 
and restoreth all things : 
and how is it written of 
the Son of man, that he 
should suffer many things 
and be set at nought? 

13 But I say unto you, that 
Elijah is come, and they 
have also done unto him 
whatsoever they listed, 
even as it is written of 
him. 

14 220 And when they 37

scribes questioning with 

15 them. And straightway 
all the multitude, when 
they say him, were great-

16 to him saluted him. And 
he asked them, What 
question ye with them? 

17 And one of the multitude 38 
answered him, Master, I 
brought unto thee my 
son, which hath a dumb 

18 spirit; and wheresoever 
it taketh him, it dasheth 
him down : and he foam- 39 
eth, and grindeth his 
teeth, and pineth away: 

and I spake to thy disci- 
ples that they should 
cast it out; and they 

19 were not able. And he 40 
answereth them and 
saith, O faithless genera-

I bear with you? bring 

20 him unto me. And they 
brought him unto him : 
and when he saw him, 
straightway the spirit 42 
tare him grievously; and 

he fell on the ground, 
and wallowed foaming. 

21 And he asked his father, 
How long time is it since 
this hath come unto him? 
And he said, From a 

22 child. And oft-times it 
hath cast him both into

thing, have compassion

behold, a man from the 
multitude cried, saying, 
Master, I beseech thee to 
look upon my son ; for 
he is mine only child: 
and behold, a spirit tak- 
eth him, and he sudden- 
ly crieth out; and it 
teareth him that he 
foameth, and it hardly de- 
parteth from him, bruis- 
ing him sorely. And I 
besought thy disciples to 
cast it out; and they 
could not. And Jesus 
answered and said,

generation, how long 
shall I be with you, and 
bear with you? bring 
hither thy son. And as 
he was yet a coming, the 
devil dashed him down,

But Jesus rebuked the 
unclean spirit, and heal- 
ed the boy, and gave him 
back to his father.

the father of the child 
cried out, and said, I be-

saw that a multitude 
came running together, 
he rebuked the unclean 
spirit, saying unto him, 
Thou dumb and deaf 
spirit, I command thee, 
come out of him, and en-

26 And having cried out, 
and torn him much, he 
came out : and the child 
became as one dead; in-

the hand and raised him 

23 up; and he arose. And 
when he was come into

asked him privately, say-

29 it out. And he said unto 
them, This kind can 
come out by nothing,

30 And they went forth from 
thence, and passed 
through Galilee; and he 
would not that any man 

31 should know it. For he 
taught his disciples, and

Depart hence, and go

laid his hand on him, be- 
cause his hour was not 

31 yet come. But of the 
multitude many believed 
on him ; and they said, 
When the Christ shall 
come, will he do more 
signs than those which 
this man hath done? 

32 242 The Pharisees 
heard the multitude 
murmuring these things 
concerning him ; and the 
chief priests and the 
Pharisees sent officers to 

33 take him. Jesus there- 
fore said, Yet a little 
while am I with you, and 
I go unto him that sent 

34 me. Ye shall seek me, 
and shall not find me : 
and where I am, ye can- 

35 not come. The Jews 
therefore said among 
themselves, Whither will 
this man go that we shall 
not find him? will he go 
unto the Dispersion 
among the Greeks, and 

36 teach the Greeks? What 
is this word that he said, 
Ye shall seek me, and 
shall not find me : and 
where I am, ye cannot 
come? 

37 243 Now on the last 
day, the great day of the 
feast, Jesus stood and 
cried, saying, If any man 
thirst, let him come unto 

38 me, and drink. He that 
believeth on me, as the 
scripture hath said, out 
out of his belly shall flow 
rivers of living water.

44 of him. And some of 
them would have taken 
him; but no man laid 
hands on him.

priests and Pharisees; 
and they said unto them,

them, Are ye also led

scribes and the Phar-

taken in adultery; and 
having set her in the 

4 midst, they say unto him, 
Master, this woman hath 
been taken in adultery, 

5 in the very act. Now in 
the law Moses command- 
ed us to stone such: 
what then sayest thou of 

6 her? And this they said, 
tempting him, that they 
might have whereof to 
accuse him. But Jesus 
stooped down, and with 
his finger wrote on the 

7 ground. But when they 
continued asking him, he 
lifted up himself, and 
said unto them, He that is 
without sin among you, 
let him first cast a stone 

8 at her. And again he 
stooped down, and with 
his finger wrote on 

9 the ground. And they, 
when they heard it, went 
out one by one, begin- 
ning from the eldest, 
even unto the last: and 
Jesus was left alone, and 
the woman, where she 

10 was, in the midst. And 
Jesus lifted up himself, 
and said unto her, Wo- 
man, where are they? did 
no man condemn thee?

Jesus answered, Ye know

disciples asked him, say-

that he should be born

Neither did this man sin,

the works of God should 
be made manifest in him.

was the sabbath on the 
day when Jesus made the

isees also asked him how 
he received his sight. 
And he said unto them, 
Hs put clay upon mine 
eyes, and I washed, and

of the Pharisees said, 
This man is not from

not the sabbath. But 
others said, How can a 
man that is a sinner do 
such signs? And there 
was a division among 

17 them. Thev say there-

again, What sayest thou 
of him, in that he opened 
thine eyes? And he said, 

18 He is a prophet. The 
Jews therefore did not 
believe concerning him, 
that he had been blind, 
and bad received his 
sight, until they called 
the parents of him that 
had received his sight,

Is this your son, who ye

that this man is a sinner. 
He therefore answered, 
Whether he be a sinner, 
I know not: one thing 
I know, that, whereas I 
was blind, now I see. 
They said therefore unto 
him, What did he to 
thee? how opened he 

27 thine eyes? He answered 
them, I told you even 
now, and ye did not hear : 
wherefore would ye hear 
it again? would ye also 
become his disciples? 

28 And they reviled him, 
and said, Thou art his 
disciple; but we are dis- 

29 ciples of Moses. We 
know that God hath spo- 
ken unto Moses; but as 
for this man, we know 

30 not whence he is. The 
man answered and said 
unto them, Why, herein 
is the marvel, that ye 
know not whence he is, 
and yet he opened mine 

31 eyes. We know that God 
heareth not sinners: but 
if any man be a worship- 
per of God, and do his 
will, him h e heareth. 
Since the world began it 
was never heard that any 
one opened the eyes of a 
man born blind. If this 
man were not from God, 
he could do nothing.

unto him, Thou wast al- 
together born in sins, and 
dost thou teach us? And 
they cast him out.

sheep by name, and lead-

own, he goeth before 
them, and the sheep fol- 
low him : for they know

will flee from him: for

6 of strangers. This par-

Which of you shall have

say to him, Friend, lend 

6 me three loaves; for a 
friend of mine is come to 
me from a journey, and I 
have nothing to set be-

within shall answer and 
say, Trouble me not : the 
door is now shut, and 
my children are with me 
in bed; 1 cannot rise 

8 and give thee? I say un- 
to you, Though he will 
not rise and give him, 
because he is his friend, 
yet because of his impor- 
tunity he will arise and 
give him as many as he 

9 needeth. And I say unto 
you, Ask, and it shall be 
given you; seek, and ye 
shall find; knock, and it 
shall be opened unto you. 

10 For every one that ask- 
eth receiveth ; and he that 
seeketh findeth ; and to 
him that knocketh it shall 

11 be opened. And of which 
of you that is a father 
shall his son ask a loaf, 
and he give him a stone? 
or a fish, and he for a fish 

12 give him a serpent? Or 
if he shall ask an egg,

18 And if Satan also is di-

how shall his kingdom

that I cast out devils by 

19 Beelzebub. And if I by 
Beelzebub cast out dev-

therefore shall they be

by the finger of God cast 
out devils, then is the

21 upon you. When the 
strong man fully armed 
guardeth his own court, 
his goods are in peace; 

22 but when a stronger than 
he shall come upon him, 
and overcome him, he 
taketh from him his 
whole armour wherein 
he trusted, and divideth 

23 his spoils. He that is 
• not with me is against 

me ; and he that gather- 
eth not with me scatter- 

24 eth. 271 The unclean 
spirit when he is gone 
out of the man, passeth 
through waterless places, 
seeking rest ; and finding 
none, he saitb, I will turn

taketh to him seven other 
spirits more evil than 
himself; and they enter 
in and dwell there : and 
the last state of that man 
becometh worse than the 
first.

things, a certain woman 
out of the multitude 
lifted up her voice, and 
said unto him, Blessed

sign; and there shall no 
sign be given to it but 

30 the sign of Jonah. For 
even as Jonah became a 
sign unto tire Ninevites, 
so shall also the Son of 
man be to this genera- 

31 tion. The queen of tha 
south shall rise up in the 
judgement with the men 
of this generation, and 
shall condemn them: for 
she came from the ends 
of the earth to hear the 
wisdom of Solomon; and 
behold, a greater than 

32 Solomon is here. The 
men of Nineveh shall 
stand up in the judge- 
ment with this genera- 
tion, and shall condemn 
it : for they repented at 
the preaching of Jonah; 
and behold, a greater 

33 than Jonah is here. No 
man, when he hath light- 
ed a lamp, putteth it in 
a cellar, neither under 
the bushel, but on the 
stand, that they which 
enter in may see the 

Si light. The lamp of thy 
body is thine eye: when 
thine eye is single, thy 
whole body also is full 
of light; but when it is 
evil, thy body also is 

35 full of darkness. Look 
therefore whether the 
light that is in thee be 

36 not darkness. If there- 
fore thy whole body be 
full of light, having- no 
part dark, it shall be 
wholly full of light, as 
when the lamp with its 
bright shining doth give 
thee light.

a woman which had a 
spirit of infirmity eigh- 
teen years; and she was 
bowed together, and 
could in no wise lift her- 

12 self up. And when Jesus 
saw her, he ca'led her, 
and said to her, Woman, 
thou art loosed from 

13 thine infirmity. And he 
laid his hands upon her: 
and immediately she was 
made straight, and glori- 

14 fled God. And the ruler 
of the synagogue, being 
moved with indignation 
because Jesus had healed 
on the sabbath, answered 
and said to the multitude, 
There are six days in 
which men ought to 
work: in them therefore 
come and be healed, and 
not on the day of the 

15 sabbath. But the Lord 
answered him, and said, 
Ye hypocrites, doth not 
each one of you on the 
sabbath loose his ox or 
his ass from the stall, and 
lead him away to water- 

16 ing? And ought not this 
woman, being a daughter 
of Abraham whom Satan 
had bound, lo, these 
eighteen years, to have 
been loosed from this 
bond on the day of the 

17 sabbath? And as he said 
these things, all his ad-

glorious things that were 
done by him.

298 And it came to pass, 
when he went into the

of the Pharisees on a

that they were watching

was before him a certain 
man which had the drop-

spake unto the lawyers

it lawful to heal on the

not thy friends, nor thy

21 And the servant came, 
and told his lord these 
things. Then the master 
of the house being angry 
said to his servant, Go 
out quickly into the 
streets and lanes of the 
city, and bring in hither 
the poor and maimed and 

22 blind and lame. And the 
servant said, Lord, 
what thou didst com- 
mand is done, and yet 

23 there is room. And the 
lord said unto the serv- 
ant, Go out into the 
highways and hedges,

come in, that my house 

24 may be filled. For I say 
unto you, that none of 
those men which were 
bidden shall taste of my 
supper. 

25 302 Now there went 
with him great multi- 
tudes: and he turned, 

26 and said unto them, If 
any man cometh unto 
me, and hateth not his

And he divided unto 

13 them his living. And 
not many daj s after the 
younger son gathered all 
together, and took his 
journey into a far coun- 
try; and there he wasted 
his substance with riot- 

14 ous living. And when he 
had spent all, there arose 
a mighty famine in that 
country; and he began

unto kiin, What is this

said within himself, 
What shall I do, seeing

to dig; to beg I am 
ashamed. I am resolved 
what to do, that, when I

And he said, A hundred

And he said, A hundred

it is easier for heaven

another, committeth

marrieth one that is put

was carried away by the

also died, and was buried.

that humbleth himself

336 Now a certain man 
was sick, Lazarus of Be-

Mary and her sister Mar-

Mary which anointed 
the Lord with oint- 
ment, and wiped his 
feet with her hair, whose 
brother Lazarus was sick. 

5 The sisters therefore sent 
unto him, saying, Lord, 
behold, he whom thou 

t lovest is sick. But when 
Jesus heard it, he said, 
This sickness is not unto 
death, but for the glory 
of God, that the Son of 
God may be glorified 

5 thereby. Now Jesus 
loved Martha, and her 
sister, and Lazarus. 

S When therefore he heard 
that h e was sick, h e 
abode at that time two 
days in the place where 

7 he was. Then after this 
he saith to the disciples, 
Let us go into Judsea 

8 again. The disciples say 
unto him, Rabbi, the Jews 
were but now seeking to 
stone thee; and goest 

9 thou thither again? Jesus 
answered, Are there not 
twelve hours in the day? 
If a man walk in the day 
he stumbleth not, because 
he seeth the light of this 

10 world. But if a man walk 
in the night, he stum- 
bleth, because the light 

11 is not in him. These 
things spake he: and 
after this he saith unto 
them, Our friend Lazarus 
is fallen asleep; but I 
go, that I may awake him 

12 out of sleep. The disci- 
ples therefore said unto 
him, Lord, if he is fallen 
asleep, he will recover. 

13 Now Jesus had spoken 
of his death: but they 
thought that he spake of 
taking rest in sleep. 

14 Then Jesus therefore 
said unto them plainly, 

15 Lazarus is dead. And I 
am glad for your sakes 
that I was not there, to

17 So when Jesus came, he 
found that he had been 
In the tomb four days 

18 already. Now Bethany 
was nigh unto Jerusa- 
lem, about fifteen fur- 

19 longs off; and many of 
the Jews had come to 
Martha and Mary, to con- 
sole them concerning 

20 their brother. Martha 
therefore, when she heard 
that Jesus was coming, 
went and met him: but 
Mary still sat in the

Lord, if thou hadst been

22 died. And even now I 
know that, whatsoever 
thou shalt ask of God,

on me, though he die, 

26 yet shall he live: and 
whosoever liveth and be-

that she was going unto

32 Mary therefore, when she 
came where Jesus was, 
and saw him, fell down 
at his feet, saying unto 
him, Lord, if thou hadst 
been here, my brother 

33 had not died. When 
Jesus therefore saw her 
weeping, and the Jews 
also weeping which came 
with her, he groaned in 
the spirit, and was trou- 

34 bled, and said, Where 
have ye laid him? They 
say unto him, Lord, come 

35 and see. Jesus wept. 

36 The Jews therefore said, 
Behold how he loved

said, Could notthis-man.

him that was blind, have 
caused that this man also 

38 should not die? Jesus 
therefore again groaning 
in himself cometh to the 
tomb. Now it was a 
cave, and a stone lay 

39 against it. Jesus saith, 
Take ye away the stone. 
Martha, the sister of him 
that was dead, saith unto 
him, Lord, by this time 
he stinketh : for he hath 
been dead four days. 

40 Jesus saith unto her, 
Said I not unto thee, 
that, if thou believedst, 
thou shouldest see the 

41 glory of God? So they 
took away the stone. And 
Jesus lifted up his eyes,

that thou hearest me al- 
ways: but because of the 
multitude which stand-

45 Many therefore of the 
Jews, which came to 
Mary and beheld that 
which he did, believed 

46 on him. But some of 
them went away to the 
Pharisees, and told them 
the things which Jesus 
had done. 

47 337 The chief priests 
therefore and the Phari- 
sees gathered a council, 
and said, What do we? 
for this man doeth many 

48 signs. If we let him 
thus alone, all men will 
believe on him: and the 
Romans will come and 
take away both our place 

49 and our nation. But a 
certain one of them, 
Caiaphas, being high 
priest that year, said unto 
them, Ye know nothing 

50 at all, nor do ye take ac- 
count that it is expedient 
for you that one man 
should die for the peo- 
ple, and that the whole 

51 nation perish not. Now 
this he said not of him- 
self: but being high priest 
that year, he prophesied 
that Jesus should die 

52 for the nation ; and 
not for the nation only, 
but that he might also 
gather together into one 
the children of God that 

53 are scattered abroad. So 
from that day forth they 
took counsel that they 
might put him to death. 

54 Jesus therefore walked 
no more openly among 
the Jews, but departed 
thence into the country 
near to the wilderness, 
into a city called Eph- 
riam; and there he tar- 
ried with the disciples. 

55 338 Now the passover 
of the Jews was at hand : 
and many went up to 
Jerusalem out of the 
country before the pass- 
over, to purify them-

therefore for Jesus, and 
spake one with another, 
as they stood in the 
temple, What think ye?

And while he was in 
Bethany in the house of 
Simon the leper, as he 
sat at meat, there came 
a woman having an ala- 
baster cruse of ointment 
of spikenard very costly; 
and she brake the cruse, 
and poured it over his 
head. 

But there were 
some that had indigna- 
tion among themselves, 
saying, To what pur- 
pose hath this waste of 
the ointment been made? 
For this ointment might 
have been sold for above 
three hundred pence, and 
given to the poor. And 
they murmured against 
her. But Jesus said, Let 
her alone; why trouble 
ye her? she hath wrought 
a good work on me. For 
ye have the poor always 
with you, and whenso- 
ever ye will ye can do 
them good: but me ye

She hath done what she

347 Jesus therefore six 
days before the passover 
came to Bethany, where 
Lazarus was, whom Je-

dead. So they made him 
a supper there: and Mar- 
tha served; but Lazarus 
was one of them that sat 
at meat with him. 

Mary 
therefore took a pound 
of ointment of spikenard, 
very precious, and anoint- 
ed the feet of Jesus, and 
wiped his feet with her 
hair: and the house was 
filled with the odour of 
the ointment. But Judas 
Iscariot, one of his dis- 
ciples, which should be- 
tray him, saith, Why 
was not this ointment 
sold for three hundred 
pence, and given to the 
poor? Now this he said, 
not because he cared for 
the poor; but because he 
was a thief, and having 
the bag took away what 
was put therein. Jesus 
therefore said, Suffer 
her to keep it against 
the day of my burying. 
For the poor ye have al- 
ways with you; but me 
ye have not always.

killed another, and stoned 

36 another. Again, he sent 
other servants more 
than the first: and they 
did unto them in like 

37 manner. But afterward 
he sent unto them his 
son, saying, They will 

38 reverence my son. But 
the husbandmen, when 
they saw the son, said 
among themselves, This

kill him, and take his in- 

39 heritance. And they 
took him, and cast him 
forth out of the vineyard, 

40 and killed him. When 
therefore the lord of the 
vineyard shall come, 
what will he do unto 

41 those husbandmen? They 
say Ubto him, He will 
miserably destroy those 
miserable men, and will 
let out the vineyard unto 
other husbandmen, which 
shall render him the 
fruits in their seasons.

The stone which the build-

44 thereof. And he that

368 And Jesus answered 
and spake again in para- 
bles unto them, saying, 

! The kingdom of heaven 
is likened unto a certain 
king, which made a mar- 
riage feast for his son, 

J and sent forth his ser- 
vants to call them that 
were bidden to the mar- 
riage feast : and they 

[ would not come* Again 
he sent forth other ser- 
vants, saying, Tell them 
that are bidden, Behold, 
I have made ready my 
dinner : my oxen and my 
fatlings are killed, and 
all things a r, e ready : 
come to the marriage 

5 feast. But they made 
light of it, and went 
their ways, one to his 
own farm, another to his 

y merchandise: and the 
rest laid hold on his ser- 
vants, and entreated 
them shamefully, an d 

7 killed them. But the 
king was wroth ; and he 
sent his armies, and de- 
stroyed those murderers, 
and burned their city. 

8 Then saith he to his ser- 
vants, The wedding is 
ready, but they that were 
bidden were not worthy. 

9 Go ye therefore unto the 
partings of the highways, 
and as many as ye shall 
find, bid to the marriage 

10 feast. And those ser- 
vants went out into the 
highways, and gathered 
together all as many as 
they found, both bad and 
good: and the wedding 
was filled with guests.

their disciples, with the 
Herodiane, saying, Mas-

carest not for any one : 
for thou regardest not 

17 the person of men. Tell 
us therefore, What think-

give tribute unto Caesar, 

18 ornoi? But Jesus per- 
ceived their wickedness, 
and said, Why tempt ye 

19 me, ye hypocrites? Shew 
me the tribute money. 
And they brought unto 

20 him a penny. Aad he

no resurrection : and they

die, having no children, 
his brother shall marry 
his wife, and raise up 
seed unto his brother. 

25 Now there were with us 
seven brethren: and the 
first married and deceas-

left his wife unto his 

26 brother; in like man-

the third, unto the sev-

she be of the seven? for

not the person of men, 
but of a truth teachest

lawful to give tribute

third likewise: and the

Philip, which was of

serve me, him will the 

27 Father honour. Now is 
my soul troubled; and 
what shall I say? Father, 
save me from this hour. 
But for this-' cause came 

28 I unto this hour. Father, 
glorify thy name. There 
came therefore a voice 
out of heaven, saying, I 
have both glorified it, 
and will glorify it again. 

29 The multitude therefore, 
that stood by, and heard 
it, said that it had thun- 
dered: others said, An 
angel hath spoken to him. 

30 Jesus answered and said, 
This voice hath not come 
for my sake, but for 

31 your sakes. Now is the 
judgement of this world : 
now shall the prince of 
this world be cast out. 

32 And I, if I be lifted up 
from the earth, will draw 
all men unto myself. 

33 But this he said, signify- 
ing by what maoner of 

34 death he should die. The 
multitude therefore an- 
swered him, We have 
heard out of the law that 
the Christ abideth for 
ever: and how sayest 
thou, The Son of man 
must be lifted up? who 

35 is this Son of man? Je- 
sus therefore said unto 
them, Yet a little while 
is the light among you. 
Walk while ye have the 
light, that darkness over- 
take you not : and he 
that walketh in the dark- 
nessknoweth not whither 

36 he goeth. While ye have 
the light, believe on the 
light, that ye may be- 
come sons of light. 
These things spake Je- 
sus, and he departed and 
hid himself from them. 

37 384 But though he had 
done so many signs be- 
fore them, yet they be- 

38 lieved not on him: that 
the word of Isaiah the 
prophet might be ful- 
filled, which he spake, 

Lord, who hath believed 
our report? 

And to whom hath the arm 
of the Lord been re- 
vealed?

39 For this cause they could 
not believe, for that 
Isaiah said again, 

40 He hath blinded their eyes, 

and he hardened their 
heart; 
Lest they should see with 
their eyes , and perceive 
with their heart, 
And should turn, 
And I should heal them. 

41 These things said Isaiah, 
because he saw his glory ; 
and he spake of him. 

42 385 Nevertheless even 
of the rulers many be- 
lieved on him; but be- 
cause of the Pharisees 
they did not eonfess it, 
lest they should be put 
out of the synagogue: 

43 for they loved the glory 
of men more than the 
glory of God. 

44 386 And Jesus cried and 
said, He that believeth on 
me, believeth not on me, 
but on him that sent me. 

45 And he that beholdeth 
me beholdeth him that 

46 sent me. I am come a 
light into the world, that 
whosoever believeth on 
me may not abide in the 

47 darkness. And if any 
man hear my sayings, 
and keep them not, I 
judge him not: for I 
came not to judge the 
world, but to save the 

48 world. He that reject- 
eth me, and receiveth not 
my sayings, hath one 
that judgeth him: the 
word that I spake, the 
same shall judge him in 

49 the last day. For I 
spake not from myself; 
but the Father which 
sent me, he hath given 
me a c o m m a n dment, 
what I should say, and 
what I should speak. 

50 And I know that his 
commandment is life 
eternal : the thiugs there-

out from the temple, and 
was going on his way; 
and his disciples came to 
him to shew him the 
buildings of the temple. 
But he answered and 
said unto them, See ye not 
all these things? verily 
I say unto you, There 
shall not be left here one 
stone upon another, that

389 And as he sat on 
the mount of Olives, the 
disciples came unto him 
privately, saying, Tell us, 
when shall these things 
be? and what shall be 
the sign of thy coming, 
and of the end of the 
world? And Jesus an- 
swered and said unto 
them, Take heed that no

many shall come in my

41 387 And he sat down 
over against the treas- 
ury, and beheld how the 
multitude cast money in- 
to the treasury : and 
many that were rich cast 

42 in much. And there came 
a poor widow, and she 
cast in two mites, which 

43 make a farthing. And 
he called unto him his 
disciples, and said unto 
them, Verily I say unto 
you, This poor widow 
cast in more than all they 
which are casting into 

44 the treasury: for they all 
did cast in of their su- 
perfluity; but she of her 
want did cast in all that 
she had, even all her liv- 
ing. 

Chapter 13. 

1 And as he went forth 
out of the temple, one of 
his disciples saith unto 
him, Master, behold, 
what manner of stones 
and what manner of

said unto him, Seest thou 
these great buildings ? 
there shall not be left 
here one stone upon an-

Of a truth I say unto

cast in more than they 

4 all: for all these did of 
their superfluity cast in 
unto the gifts: but she 
of her want did cast in 
all the living that she

5 And as some spake of 
the temple, how it was 
adorned with goodly 
stones and offerings, he 

6 said, As for these things

there will not be left 
here one stone upon an-

10 And the gospel must first 
be preached unto all the

not anxious beforehand 
what ye shall speak : but 
whatsoever shall be giv-

shall deliver up brother 
to death, and the father

shall rise up against par- 
ents, and cause them to 

13 be put to death. And ye 
shall be hated of all 
men for my name's sake : 
but he that endureth to 
the end, the same shall

14 But when ye see the 
abomination of desola-

ought not (let him that

then let them that are in 
Judaea flee unto the 

15 mountains: and let him 
that is on the housetop 
not go down, nor enter

cute you, delivering you 
up to the synagogues and 
prisons, bringing you be- 
fore kings and governors 

13 for my name's sake. It 
shall turn unto you for a 

14 testimony. Settle it 
therefore in your hearts, 
not to meditate before- 

15 hand how to answer: for 
I will give you a mouth 
and wisdom, which all 
your adversaries shall 
not be able to withstand 

16 or to gainsay. But ye shall 
be delivered up even by 
parents, and brethren, 
and kinsfolk, and friends ; 
and some of you shall 
they cause to be put 

17 to death. And ye shall 
be hated of all men 

18 for my name's sake. And 
not a hair of your head 

19 shall perish. In your 
patience ye shall win 
your souls. 

20 But when ye see Jerusa- 
lem compassed with 
armies, then know that 
her desolation is at 

21 hand. Then let them 
that are in Judaea flee 
unto the mountains; and 
let them that are in the 
midst of her depart out; 
and let not them that are 
in the country enter 

22 therein. For these are 
days of vengeance, that 
all things which are writ- 

23 ten may be fulfilled. Woe 
unto them that are with 
child and to them that 
give suck in those days ! 
for there shall be great 
distress upon the land, 
and wrath unto this peo- 

24 pie. And they shall fall 
by the edge of the sword, 
and shall be led captive 
into all the nations : and

Gentiles be fulfilled.

where thou didst not

thou didst not scatter:

they said, Not during the

twelve, who was called 
Judas Iscariot, went un-

and said, What are ye

you that I go away: for 
if I go not away, the 
Comforter will not come 
unto you; but if I go, I 
will send him unto you. 
And he, when he is come, 
will convict the world in 
respect of sin, and of 
rightneousness, and of 
judgement: of sin, be- 
cause they believe not on 
me; of righteousness, 
because I go to the 
Father, and ye behold 
me no more; of judge- 
ment, because the prince 
of this world hath been 

12 judged. I have yet many 
things to say unto you, 
but ye cannot bear them

the Spirit of truth, is

into all the truth : for he 
shall not speak from him- 
self; but what things 
soever he shall hear, 
these shall he speak : and 
he shall declare unto you 
the things that are to come . 

14 He shall glorify me : for 
he shall take of mine, 
and shall declare it unto

that he taketh of mine,

lovedst me before the 
foundation of the world. 

25 O righteous Father, the 
world knew thee not, but 

26 I knew thee; and these 
knew that thou didst 
send me; and I made 
known unto them thy

place which was named 
Gethsemane : and he saith 
unto his disciples, Sit ye 

33 here, while I pray. And 
he taketh with him Peter

began to be greatly 
amazed, and sore 

34 troubled. And he saith 
unto them, My soul is 
exceeding sorrowful even 
unto death: abide ye 

35 here, and watch. And 
he went forward a little, 
and fell on the ground, 
and prayed that, if it 
were possible, the hour 
might pass away from 

36 him. And he said, Abba,

possible unto thee; re- 
move this cup from me : 
howbeit not what I will,

said unto them, Pray 
that ye enter not into 

41 temptation. And he was 
parted from them about 
a stone's cast; and he 
kneeled down and prayed, 

42 saying, Father, if thou 
be willing, remove this 
cup from me: neverthe- 
less not my will, but 

43 thine, be done. And 
there appeared unto him 
an angel from heaven, 

44 strengthening him. And 
being in au agony he 
prayed more earnestly :

it were great drops of 
blood falling down upon 

45 the ground. And when

prayer, he came unto the

answered, My kingdom 
is not of this world: if 
my kingdom were of this

should not be delivered 
to the Jews : but now is 
my kingdom not from

I am a king. To this end 
have I been born, and to 
this end am I come into 
the world, that I should 
bear witness unto the 
truth. Every one that is 
of the truth heareth my

him, What is truth? 
And when he had said 
this, he went out again

unto them, I find no-

Herod, who himself also

had heard concerning

swer, not even to one 
word: insomuch that the 
governor marvelled 
greatly. 

15 454 Now at the feast 
the governor was wont 
to release unto the mul- 
t i t u d e one prisoner, 

16 whom they would. And 
they had then a notable 
prisoner, called Barab- 

17 bas. When therefore 
they were gathered to- 
gether, Pilate said unto 
them, Whom will ye that 
I release unto you? Ba- 
rabbas, or Jesus which is 

18 called Christ? For he 
knew that for envy they 
had delivered him up. 



— Crucify him,

19 455 And while he was 
sitting on the judgement- 
seat, his wife sent unto 
him, saying, Have thou 
nothing to do with that 
righteous man: for I have 
suffered many things this 
day in a dream because 

20 of him. Now the chief 
priests and the elders 
persuaded the multitudes 
that they should ask for 
Barabbas, and destroy 

21 Jesus. But the governor 
answered and said unto 
them, Whether of the 
twain will ye that I re- 
lease unto you? And 
they said, Barabbas, 

22 Pilate saith unto them, 
What then shall I do 
unto Jesus which is 
called Christ ? They all 
say, Let him be crucified. 

23 And he said, Why, what 
evil hath he done? But 
they cried out exceed- 
ingly, saying, Let him be 
crucified. 

24 456 So when 
Pilate saw that he pre- 
vailed nothing, but rather 
that a tumult was aris- 
ing, he took water, and 
washed his hands before 
the multitude, saying, I 
am innocent of the blood 
of this righteous man: 

25 see ye to it. And all the

6 Now at the 
feast he used to release 
unto them one prisoner, 
whom they asked of him. 

7 And there was one called 
Barabba?, lying bound 
with them that had made 
insurrection, men who 
in the insurrection had 

8 committed murder. And 
the multitude went up 
and began to ask him to 
do as he was wont to 

9 do unto them. And 
Pilate answered them, 
saying, Will )e that I 
release unto to you the 

10 KiDg of the Jews? For 
he perceived that for 
envy the chief priests had 
delivered him up. 

11 But 
the chief priests stirred 
up the multitude, that he 
should rather release 
Barabbas unto them. 

12 And Pilate again an- 
swered and said unto 
them, What then shall I 
do unto him whom ye 
call the King of the 

13 Jews ? And they cried 
out again, Crucify him. 

14 And Pilate said unto 
them, Why, what evil 
hath he done ? But they 
cried out exceedingly, 
Crucify him. 



Chapter 23. 

18 But 39 
they cried out all togeth- 
er, saying, Away with 
this man, and release 

19 unto us Barabbas : one 
who for a certain insur- 
rection made in the city, 40 
and for murder, was cast 

20 into prison. And Pilate 
spake unto them again, 
desiring to release Jesus ; 

21 but they shouted, saying, 
Crucify, crucify him. 



22 And he said unto them 
the third time, Why, 
what evil hath this man 
done ? I have found no 
cause of death in him: I 
will therefore chastise 
him and release him. 

23 But they were instant 
with loud voices, asking 
that he might be cruci- 
fied. And their voices 
prevailed.

But ye 
have a custom, that I 
should release unto you 
one at the passover: will 
ye therefore that I re- 
lease unto you the Kin^ 
of the Jews? They 
cried out therefore 
again, saying, Not this 
man, but Barabbas. Now 
Barabbas was a robber.

standing by the cross of

his mother's sister, Mary

Jesus therefore saw his

standing by, whom he

mother, Woman, behold,

to the disciple, Behold,

the linen cloths, but

506 After these things 
Jesus manifested himself 
again to the disciples at 
the sea of Tiberias; and 
he manifested himself on 
this wise. There were 
together Simon Peter, 
and Thomas called Didy- 
mus, and Nathanael of 
Cana in Galilee, and the 
sons of Zebedee, and two 
other of his disciples. 
Simon Peter . saith unto 
them, I go a fishing. 
They say unto him, We 
also come with thee. 
They weDt forth, and en- 
tered into the boat; and 
that night they took noth- 
ing. But when clay was 
now breaking, Jesus 
stood on the beach : how- 
beit the disciples knew 
not that it was Jesus. 
Jesus therefore saith un- 
to them, Children, have 
ye aught to eat? They 
answered him, No. And 
he said unto them, Cast 
the net on the right side 
of the boat, and ye shall 
find. They cast there- 
fore, and now they were 
not able to draw it for 
the multitude of fishes. 
That disciple therefore 
whom Jesus loved saith 
unto Peter, It is the 
Lord. So when Simon 
Peter heard that it was 
the Lord, he girt his coat 
about him (for he was 
naked), and cast himself 
into the sea. But the 
other disciples came in 
the little boat (for they 
were not far from the 
land, but about two hun- 
dred cubits off), drag- 
ging the net full of 
fishes. So when they 
got out upon the land, 
they see a fire of coals

therefore went up, and 
drew the net to land, 
full of great fishes, a hun- 
dred and fifty and three: 
and for all there was so 
many, the net was not 

12 rent. Jesus saith unto 
them, Come and break 
your fast. And none of

he said unto them, It is

in his own authority. 

8 But ye shall receive pow-

is come upon you; and 
ye shall be my witnesses 
both in Jerusalem, and 
in all Judaea and Sa- 
maria, and unto the ut-

9 earth. And when he had 
said these things, as they 
were looking, he was 
taken up; and a cloud 
received him out of their 

10 sight. And while they 
were looking stedfastly 
into heaven as he went, 
behold, two men stood 
by them in white appar-

from you into heaven, 
shall so come in like

16 Brethren, it was needful 
that the scripture should 
be fulfilled, which the

by the mouth of David 
concerning Judas, who 
was guide to them that

received his portion in

Let his habitation be made

therein :

from the baptism of 
John, unto the day that 
he was received up from 
us, of these must one be-

23 of his resurrection. And 
they put forward two, 
Joseph called Barsabbas, 
who was surnamed Jus- 

24 tus, and Matthias. And 
they prayed, and said, 
Thou Lord, which know- 
est the hearts of all men, 
shew of these two the 
one whom thou hast 

25 chosen, to take the place 
in this ministry and apos- 
tleship, from which 
Judas fell away, that he 
might go to his own

29 Brethren, I may say unto 
you freely of the patri- 
arch David, that he both 
died and was buried, and 
his tomb is with us unto 

30 this day. Being there- 
fore a prophet, and 
knowing that God had 
sworn with an oath to 
him, that of the fruit of 
his loins he would set 

31 one upon his throne; he 
foreseeing this spake of 
the resurrection of the 
Christ, that neither was 
he left in Hades, nor did 
his flesh see corruption. 

32 This Jesus did God raise 
up, whereof we all are 

33 witnesses. Being there- 
fore by the right hand of 
God exalted, and having 
received of the Eather 
the promise of the Holy 
Ghost, he hath poured 
forth this, which ye see 
and hear. 

34 For David ascended not 
into the heavens: but he 
saith himself, 

The Lord said unto my 
Lord, Sit thou on my 
right hand, 

35 Till I make thine enemies 

the footstool of thy feet. 

36 Let all the house of 
Israel therefore know 
assuredly, that God hath 
made him both Lord and 
Christ, this Jesus whom 
ye crucined. 

37 522 Now when they 
heard this, they were 
pricked in their heart, 
and said unto Peter and 
the rest of the apostles, 
Brethren, what shall we 

38 do? And Peter said unto 
them, Repent ye, and be 
baptized every one of you 
in the name of Jesus 
Christ unto the remission 
of your sins ; and ye shall 
receive the gilt of the 

39 Holy Ghost. For to you 
is the promise, and to

that are afar off, even as

with gladness and sin- 
gleness of heart, praising 
God, and having favour 

47 with all the people. And 
the Lord added to them 
day by day those that 
were being saved. 



JOHN.
